You Don’t Have to Be a Tramp to Like this Master Chief Stamp

Sometimes, if something you want isn’t available, the only option is making it yourself, and that is exactly what Andrea did. Desperately in need of a stamp for a swap, she carefully carved into a durable pink eraser until the pressed image more than resembled our favorite Spartan supersoldier. Her Master Chief stamp, which took almost three days to complete, comes ready to imprint the instantly recognizable physique upon any surface that accepts inked images. I’m just happy she only did the upper body, because I happen to have something pink his lower body would look perfect on!

Master Chief Goes Victorian with this Halo Steampunk Helmet

There is something inexplicable about the innate allurement of modern utilitarian objects adorned with Victorian design elements. The last time we saw this mechanical “steampunk” style was on an Xbox 360 controller, and now, thanks to Christophe, we have the pleasure of seeing something Halo-related redesigned in the same popular trend. A project that, from visualization to fruition, spanned almost two months, this Halo steampunk helmet was more than worth both the time and effort. Christophe used plumbing PVC pipe and four layers of acrylic and spray paint as the tangible materials, but he says the recurring theme was failure and then numerous retries until something worked. Thankfully he stuck with it though because I’m pretty sure Master Chief could go diving in this thing. And needless to say, that will definitely come in handy when I meet him.

A Noble Set of Incredible Halo Clay Figures

The last time we devoured the awesomeness that is the continually growing collection of miniature, Halo-themed clay figures, many of you were quick to demand more Noble Team. Not being one to disappoint, Antithesis decided to step up his game and produce just that. His most recent batch (which includes a superbly sculpted Carter-A259 and Emile-A239 along with a custom VI-ETS Security Guard Spartan and Sangheili Exemplar) is sure to leave your loins aching for more Halo: Reach. Unfortunately that is one itch that won’t get scratched until September so until then, I’m hoping the following pictures will get you through. Grab a sock, an apple pie, or your Mjolnir Mark VI helmet, and hit the jump. Just don’t hit it too hard. That poor hand needs a break every now and again you know.

Stuffed Halo Grunt Searching for a Nipple Mate

When you hear the term cannon fodder, cuddly typically isn’t the first word that comes to mind. Seeing the adorable Halo Grunt plush that Heather recently created though will definitely change that. Measuring an almost imposing 2’6″ from the bottom of his padded feet to the tip of his stuffed methane tank, every last detail was carefully handsewn until it more than resembled our favorite fictional species of small, bipedal arthropods. Despite some basic similarities, he differs from us in one primary way. He doesn’t wear his heart on his sleeve but instead sports it right on his chest for all to see. I’d do the same except then I’d have to put my bewbs back in my shirt and this little nipple-loving guy wouldn’t like that one bit! Feel free to check out more pictures after the jump, should you desire another ogle or two.
